"I hate talking about it," he said. "I simply politely answer the questions when they are asked. And inevitably, someone will take a line out of a perfunctory answer and try to make a headline out of it."

"And the readers get exhausted and I get blamed for trying to perpetuate a non-update," said Bateman.

For the record, there's no news on the proposed project. And definitely no Aniston.

"There's nothing new to report," said Bateman of the movie. "But it's something we'd all love to do."
